It was reported in the news that the Ikorodu – Mile 12 Road was on total lockdown due to the road construction on this axis. Yesterday was worse for worshippers as they are stuck up in traffic for hours. So as not to see a repeat of what happened yesterday, many thought if Sunday can be this hellish despite few vehicular movements, what will happen on a working day? Many have therefore stormed the Ikorodu Ferry Terminal. The terminal was re-constructed under the Ambode-led administration but Lagosians have refused to use it despite the trip from Ikorodu to Island takes on 30mins, unlike the road that takes 2-3hours all thanks to 3rd Mainland Bridge, traffic among others.Early today, the Ikorodu Ferry Terminal was filled to the brim as people seem to be slowly embracing the water transportation in Lagos. We hope LASWA will step up their game in terms of safety and providing new, fast and affordable boats. Ikorodu to Lagos Island costs 700 naira which we believe is too expensive, this is calling on the Lagos State Government to look into this and half the price if they want people to be using this service. 350-400 naira won’t be a bad idea as it takes only 25mins to get to their location.These are pictures from the terminal early this morning as obtained by AutoReportNG
